There are many elements to and excel formula. References: The cell or range of cells that you want to use in your calculation Operators: Symbols (+, -, *, /, etc.) that specify the calculation to be performed Constants: Numbers or text values that do not change Functions: Predefined formulas in Excel

- 35. Excel Formulas A Function is a built in formula in Excel. A function has a name and arguments (the mathematical function) in parentheses. Common functions in Excel: • Sum: Adds all cells in the argument • Average: Calculates the average of the cells in the argument • Min: Finds the minimum value • Max: Finds the maximum value • Count: Finds the number of cells that contain a numerical value within a range of the argument

- 38. Relative, Absolute and Mixed References Calling cells by just their column and row labels (such as "A1") is called relative referencing. When a formula contains relative referencing and it is copied from one cell to another, Excel does not create an exact copy of the formula. It will change cell addresses relative to the row and column they are moved to. For example, if a simple addition formula in cell C1"=(A1+B1)" is copied to cell C2, the formula would change to"=(A2+B2)" to reflect the new row. To prevent this change, cells must be called by absolute referencing and this is accomplished by placing dollar signs "$" within the cell addresses in the formula. Continuing the previous example, the formula in cell C1 would read "=($A$1+$B$1)" if the value of cell C2 should be the sum of cells A1 and B1. Both the column and row of both cells are absolute and will not change when copied. Mixed referencing can also be used where only the row or column fixed. For example, in the formula"=(A$1+$B2)", the row of cell A1 is fixed and the column of cell B2 is fixed.
- 39. Linking Worksheets You may want to use the value from a cell in another worksheet within the same workbook in a formula. For example, the value of cell A1 in the current worksheet and cell A2 in the second worksheet can be added using the format "sheetname!cell address". The formula for this example would be"=A1+Sheet2!A2" where the value of cell A1 in the current worksheet is added to the value of cell A2 in the worksheet named "Sheet2".
- 40. Sort and Filter Sorting and Filtering allow you to manipulate data in a worksheet based on given set of criteria. Basic Sorts To execute a basic descending or ascending sort based on one column: 1. Highlight the cells that will be sorted 2. Click the Sort & Filter button on the Home tab 3.

Click the Words you wish to Filter To Clear the Filter: 1. To clear the filter click the Sort & Filter button 2. Click Clear
- 43. The IF Function in Excel 2007 The IF function can be quite useful in a spreadsheet. It is used when you want to test for more than one value. IF(logical_test, value_if_true, value_if_false) The thing to note here is the three items between the round brackets of the word IF. These are the arguments that the IF function needs. Here's what they mean: • logical_test The first argument is what you want to test for. • value_if_true This is what you want to do if the answer to the first argument is YES. • value_if_false This is what you want to do if the answer to the first argument is NO.
- 44. Comparison Operator • Equals (=) • Less than (<) • Less than or equal to (<=) • Greater than (>) • Greater than or equal to (>=) • Not equal to (<>) • : (colon) Range. Produces one reference to all the cells between two references. (Reference Operator) • , (comma) Union. Combines multiple cell or range references into one reference. (Reference Operator)
- 45. VLOOKUP Function in Excel 2007 Searches for a value in the first column of a table array and returns a value in the same row from another column in the table array. The V in VLOOKUP stands for vertical. VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup) • Lookup_value The value to search in the first column of the table array. • Table_array Two or more columns of data. Use a reference to a range or a range name. The values in the first column of table_array are the values searched by lookup_value. These values can be text, numbers, or logical values. Uppercase and lowercase text are equivalent. • Col_index_num The column number in table_array from which the matching value must be returned. A col_index_num of 1 returns the value in the first column in table_array; a col_index_num of 2 returns the value in the second column in table_array, and so on. • Range_lookup A logical value that specifies whether you want VLOOKUP to find an exact match or an approximate match. (TRUE/FALSE)
- 46. COUNT Function in Excel 2007 Counts the number of cells in a range that contains a numbers. COUNT(value1,value2,…)
- 47. COUNTIF Function in Excel 2007 Counts the number of cells within a range that meet the given condition. COUNTIF(range,criteria) • Range – is the range of cells from which you want to count nonblock cells. • Criteria – is the condition in the form of number, expression, or text that defines which cells will be counted.
- 48. RANK Function in Excel 2007 Returns the rank of a number in a list of numbers: its size relative to other values in the list. RANK(number,reference,order) • Number – is the number for which you want to find the rank. • Reference – is an array of, or a reference to, a list of numbers. Nonnumeric values are ignored. • Order – (0 – descending order; 1 – ascending order)
